I think I'm from that area.

Wow... I have been using it (Kelpak) at 1/4 tsp per gallon. I guess I really need to increase the dose? Funny, I thought my most of my new fat root growth was due to the Kelpak and not my or Ray's version of K-lite?

Very nice, I love it! Great job!

Welcome from Norfolk, VA! Nice Phal! :)

Have tried 80/20 Orchiata/perlite and it seemed to work fine based on my growing conditions. Lately I have tried straight orchiata and things seem to be ok too. Give me another year to see how things progress.

I have had stellar experiences with Fedex... But I have all of my packages held at the climate controlled office for pick up. Luckily I have a Fedex office .25 mile from my office.

Very cool, a great example of gigantea doing it's thing...
